I have a quick career-related question. How much grunt work, if any, do you need to do on a job site that isn't related to your chosen trade? For example, if you're a plumber or electrician on a service call, and you need to cut through the drywall to get at the pipes/wires, are you also expected to repair the drywall before you leave? Likewise with cutting through a floor or something. How many of these other skills do you need to have? I don't know if this is a dumb question or not but it is something I am curious about

Usually if I have to cut a wall or a floor to fix something the owner takes care of getting someone to patch it. I'm an hvac guy not a sheet rocker... As far as "other skills," if your a tradesman your not going to get too far if you can't cut a hole in a damn floor.
Why the fuck are you asking this shit?

Basically I was just asking if plumbers, electricians, hvac guys and the like also need to be good at patching drywall for when they are cleaning up after the job. Cutting it is one thing, but I hate repairing it.

Nah, your general should take care of repairs.
Be an electrician, the opportunity, money, and longevity are there.

Fuck no I use to install HVAC and would cut through anything and fuck tons of shit up no fucks given Mexicans are like bees they will fix shit in Minutes

Hvac here I always repair things like holes or whatever, when I leave the site it ought to look like it did when I got there with the addition of the installed unit. That means if you couldn't see the kitchen floor from the basement before, you shouldn't see it after.
This all helps to give the customer the impression that my work is better than the other guy's. If you don't do it and make them call someone else to clean up your mess, you're both lazy and shortsighted, or maybe just a wageslave who doesn't care about quality.
